  • Title: Mitral valve regurgitation causing right upper lobe pulmonary edema.
    Author: Young AL, Langston CS, Schiffman RL, Shortsleeve MJ.
    Journal: Tex Heart Inst J; 2001; 28(1):53-6. PubMed ID: 11330743.
    Abstract:
    When radiography is performed in patients with mitral regurgitation, cardiogenic pulmonary edema is a typical finding; however, asymmetric pulmonary edema has also been reported. We describe the case of a patient in whom mitral valve regurgitation caused isolated pulmonary edema in the right upper lung. We include a discussion of pulmonary edema in conjunction with mitral regurgitation.
